Overview

VoiceAbility supports people who face disadvantage or discrimination to have a voice that counts.  They provide free and independent advocacy and user involvement services.

They are recognised for their advocacy and service user involvement groups, which are offered in many local authorities across England.

They offer a wide range of services for those who have mental health needs, learning disabilities, dementia, autistic spectrum disorders, physical disabilities, sensory and communication impairments, substance misuse issues, acquired brain injury, a serious physical illness or a dual diagnosis.

They also work with Looked After Children, young people, adults, older people, carers, parents, families and people in the criminal justice system.

The nearest services based in London are in Merton & Southwark (see website).
